According to the commission, the new jobs would pay an average salary of $97,238.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">Project Forge\u2019s expansion seeks to bring the company\u2019s reputation and brand awareness to the US as its newest growth frontier,\u201d the EDC\u2019s project summary stated. \u201cWhile the company has a presence in New Jersey, the project will serve as a formal stake in the ground, the main office for the US.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">No specific site was mentioned in the summary, although the commission said the company is interested in Denver. It\u2019s also considering Nashville and Tucson, Ariz., as sites. Factors that will be considered in choosing a location include the availability of qualified workers, the community\u2019s cost of living and quality of life, and closeness to an international airport.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"NewNormal\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Could_It_Be\"><\/span>Who Could It Be?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">In the summary, EDC officials didn\u2019t name the company, saying that \u201cfurther identification would jeopardize the company\u2019s confidentiality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">Still, the summary provided some clues. Besides being a global leader considering the US a growth market, the EDC said the company \u201chas shaped the industry over the last 20 years\u201d through its innovative technology. In addition, the company employs more than 6,000 people and has a presence in New Jersey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\"><strong>That profile would seem to match Bet365, which on its website says it was founded in the United Kingdom in 2000 and has a global workforce of over 6,000. The company also has an office in southern New Jersey, just outside Philadelphia.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">Bet365 is currently licensed in four US states, including Colorado, New Jersey, Ohio, and Virginia. In January, it signed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/bet365-gets-online-market-access-rights-in-pennsylvania-with-churchill-downs-deal\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a market rights deal with Churchill Downs Incorporated<\/a> to operate in Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">A message to a Bet365 spokesperson late Thursday (ET) was not immediately returned.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"NewNormal\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Not_the_First_to_Consider_Colorado\"><\/span>Not the First to Consider Colorado<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">Whoever the online gaming operator is, if they pick Colorado, they won\u2019t be the first in the industry to settle there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"NewNormal\">In 2019, PointsBet announced that Denver would become the home of its western US base of operations.
